Average number of ePRO oral questionnaires completed per week 90 Days average number of ePRO oral questionnaires completed per week until discontinuation of OCDT or end of study (whichever occurs first)
ePRO oral ease of use 90 Days Proportion of participants reporting that ePRO oral was either easy or very easy to use among participants who responded to at least one ePRO oral questionnaire
Proportion of Participants with an ePRO Intervention 90 Days proportion of participants who were called by an office practice nurse for toxicity, had an OCDT dose modification, urgent clinic visit, ED visit or unplanned hospitalization among participants who responded to at least one ePRO oral questionnaire
